Amy Halterman from YouTube

Amy Halterman has been one of the most popular 1000-Lb. Sisters cast members. However, her most recent Instagram post is really costing her.

Keep reading to find out why fans aren’t very happy with the TLC star.

Amy Halterman stirs up controversy in her latest Instagram post

Amy Halterman and the rest of her family come from Kentucky. The views expressed in Amy’s new Instagram post unfortunately aren’t uncommon in that area, but fans aren’t happy nevertheless.

“Had a blast tonight. Got to meet the nicest people. confederate railroad thanks for having us!!!!!” Amy captioned a photo.

Confederate Railroad is a rock band from Georgia. Over the last several years, they’ve faced pressure to change their name due to its offensive nature but declined to do so. In the comments, many fans expressed disappointment that Amy and her family would support a group like this.

To make matters worse, a boy in the photo — presumably one of Amy’s nephews — is clearly wearing a Trump 2020 hat.

Confederate? Please no. 😢” wrote one follower. 

NOT THE TRUMP HAT,” wrote someone else.

Other users determined that due to Amy’s background, followers shouldn’t be surprised about the post.

“Oh if you guys only knew. Go watch her YouTube page, and Tammy’s. They grew up in the hood in the south. It’s all she knows,” one Instagram user suggested. “The girl was arrested at Walmart for theft. I know you think you know her from the show. But it’s highly edited tid bits of her life. I’m not being mean or judgy. I’m just saying, I don’t know why anyone’s shocked. Go back and watch their YouTube channel. Go watch Tammy’s video called ‘trying to sing’ when she starts talking…that’s the reality of it.”

Some followers even speculated that TLC might intervene after this post.

Will TLC move on without the show’s star?

1000-Lb. Sisters is one of TLC’s best-performing shows, so it doesn’t seem likely they’ll cancel the project outright. But viewers made it pretty clear — they aren’t okay with Amy Halterman’s post.

Instead, it’s possible they may quietly shift away from Amy. After all, she previously said she isn’t sure she wants to continue filming any longer. She’s going to have her second child this summer and wants to dedicate more time to being a mother.

Unlike Tammy, Amy continues to share more of her personal life online. This leads some fans to believe she isn’t returning for Season 4 and no longer has to abide by NDA rules.

Time will only tell if anything comes from this post.

  1. I can’t understand you people. How can anyone JUDGE a person by one Text. Are you all so Brainwashed that you have to bring POLITICS into even TV Shows. What People believe in should not Concern you it’s their Right. You talk about a Trump Hat. I guess you all Agree what BIDEN AND HARRIS are doing to Us and AMERICA. SO REALLY who are you people to judge anyone because you don’t believe in the same Things. That’s AMERICA and we are Lucky to have an OPINION about who and what we like. As for the name of a Band just think of some of the names of past Bands, but they can pick the names they want,who is anyone to tell people what is Right for them. It’s not your Call. Don’t make it into something else .? Just watch the Show if you want too, don’t make Judgement Calls. That’s what’s wrong with All of you. How would you like to be judged on one Text? Mary

      1. The world is killing America with being the have and havenots. But when jesus come back he will be the judge and jury.

        1. Whelp…its been nice knowing ya. Im not about to get into this shit storm. Besides 2020 Trump what? You know this is only gonna pad her pocket. I just want 1 show thats not slamming Trump in my face.

      2. People need to get over their hating on President Trump. He was a good President. Loved this country. Not perfect but who is sp perfect they can judge. Trump 2024

        1. Do not hate trump just hate what he does. The man could not tell a truth if his life depended on it. He is a spoiled conniving jerk. He cares for no one no place but his self. He wants America to be like Russia like China. Like trump said I get.alone better with the bad guys wonder why? No use for that washed up unintelligent mongrel.

      3. Joann, the current administration is not a lying, scamming or grifting group. Is that what we can agree on?

    1. I so agree with you 100% people are quick to judge others before anything else . I love Amy either way I wish the best for her and her whole family I hope we get a season 4 or maybe Amy will get her own show she is so calm and funny I enjoy watching her Michael and Gage looking forward to the new baby Amy and Michael great parents the kids will grow up just as they are calm and sweet .

    2. This is the dumbest shit I have ever heard. Let’s focus on the things that are truly worth attention… Like our economy, invasion of Ukraine, homelessness among others. The band keeping or changing their name “confederate railroad” has absolutely no bearing or will change anything for anyone. The people that it offend need to grow tf up and find truly important things to change in our society.

      1. I couldn’t believe what I was reading. I hope TLC doesn’t do anything about this petty stuff. There’s more important things to worry about instead of this.

      2. I said that to someone on the page. I also stated even if you don’t like it and its cringy they have the right to do it. Then the comments who cares? He isn’t in anymore and Biden is a proven racist so you kick one supposed one out with one who has stated black kids going to white schools would be like a jungle. This person basically talked about privilege and how white people are bad and you need to educate them. She goes oh well my neighbor has a confederate flag and I asked did you ask them why? She goes no they are just ignorant. I was like I thought you said people need to be educated? I also stated back in the day the swastika wasn’t related to Hitler either he hijacked it. She just saying how ignorant I was and that was that.

      3. When Trump was in he was a leader and we were much better off with him as president, the leadership
        we have now is useless, and dangerous.this administration is sad and embarrassing.

      4. OMG I completely agree. I’m sick and tired of people judging everyone all the time. There are truly more important things to focus on. Let people live their lives, if it’s not hurting anyone leave them alone.

      1. Yessss🙌🏻Agree! What a joke of an administration that’s in there now.🤡what a shit show! And how do you bunch that voted for these jokesters like the price of gas now. And just you wait, it’ll get better…..NOT🙄Go Amy!!

    3. 100% agree with this statement.
      You love the price increases on food,clothes,GAS we had our own pipeline folks). All our steel,coal,mineral rights jobs were demolished by Liberal politics. A county should rely on another county for goods that we need to live by!

    4. Amen to all responses here!!!!! Why is it this cancel Gen, woke Gen have the last word??? Since when do they get to dictate ANYTHING? And if you disagree you’re a racist. Give me a break already. Enough of this BS.

    5. You are absolutely correct. So what that her nephew has a Trump hat on, so what she likes a particular band who has been around for awhile.
      Everything has to be so political, when it doesn’t have to be. It’s just beyond ridiculous, when you can’t have your own thoughts on anything, without being canceled, or being called a racist….so ignorant

    6. People need to stop with this BS .YOUVE TAKEN ENOUGH AWAY FROM US.And dictate what we can and can not wear before u know we’ve I’ll have nothing left we have our rights did u forget that.and to strip us from everything.Even people of color has had enough. We have had taken our history away like it didn’t exist.How are this generation suppose to learn from the past if u sweep it under the rug.When u cant even mention a color with out being labeled you got issues Now u trying to control someone because of a record label get a life.which by the way has been around for decades .get over yourself. Your labeling her as a racists and that’s not the case .It’s a band name.And that flag and the name is white history which were entitle to have like other cultures do.How do u learn from mistakes if you hide it. Like it never exists Oh also people are going to the Trump side that voted for old Joe .We want Trump after what’s happen to our country .JUST STOP WITH THIS CRAP.

      1. People are so childish and stupid. There are many things we should be worried about. Some of these so called racist remarks are BS. Confederate Railroad has been around over 40 years..I wouldn’t change my name either. Just because you want to erase the name, doesn’t mean you can erase history. What’s done is done. Worry about what’s going on NOW, not THEN.

      2. Thank you. My sentiment exactly. We have our culture and history too. Isn’t that kind of reverse discrimination?

    7. Stop trying to erase history….who cares…snowflakes ..I’m sick of them….they’re ruining our country…GO AMY!!!!!

    8. You people are brainwashed, and btw we love Trump, and even if she had a Biden hat I wouldn’t care, it’s her CHOICE! You remember what a choice is right?? Geez, stop it TLC!! Or pretty soon we’ll all quit watching your channel completely!! We have our own minds, we don’t need all you close minded people deciding for us!!

    9. If all the people judge another person you all must be pure as snow otherwise stop being so judgie. If you’re not GOD you have no right to say what’s right or wrong for someone else’s life or opinions. Let alone decide what they’re aloud to think .

    10. In one text, if it expresses support of Trump and the evil he represents, the answer is yes….easy to understand and make judgements about that person. What, exactly, are Biden and Harris doing to us/America that upsets you so much? Has he abused women? Is she a grifter? Has he swindled Americans out of their money? Does he lead a cult? Is he an outspoken racist and homophobe? Is he a liar? Is he a wannabe dictator? Does he make fun or talk disparingly of the disabled and our service men/women? Hmmm. Oh, and Harris is a woman of color, I would assume that’s an issue foryou, too. You, Amy, and people like you both are what is wrong with this a country. You whacko Trumpers are the most gullible population….

    11. Lol, the lack of Google search skills, critical thinking skills, and the amount of misinformation and outright baseless beliefs in these comments is mind boggling. Religious Conservatives are an evil group out to destroy Democracy, and they’re too stupid to see it.

    12. Mary, darling, please do yourself a favor and go back and finish your GED. I don’t understand the connection between politics and literacy, but an American no longer has to confess they wear a Trump hat; we know already because their posts are unintelligible.

    13. Thank you Mary!!!!! I will never understand people that demand others to do and say and think what they do but yet they go around preaching that people have to be allowed to be who they need to be. Talk about hypocrisy. People should be allowed to do , SAY, THINK AND BELIEVE what they want PERIOD!!!!!. STOP SHOVING YOUR OWN WAY DOWN OTHERS THROATS. BE WHO YOU NEED BUT STOP REQUIRING OTHERS TO FOLLOW YOU . Every single opinion or belief belongs to THAT PERSON AND UNLESS THEY PERSONALLY TREAT YOU YOURSELF LIKE CRAP , YOU SHOULD LET IT BE. MOVE ON. SO WHAT!!! OH WELL… BOOM EASY!!!
      So sick of hypocrites.

    14. Absolutely I love watching Amy changing her life an I’m sure in the hell not gonna judge her by what her dorky nephew is wearing on his head! I don’t believe it will make a difference in how many viewers she has by the petty crap you claim makes her a trader! Go Amy your only human! You ppl just trying to cause some drama!

    15. I agree!!! I’m so tired of everything having to be torn apart because of politics, life style, a name of a band..good grief. There’s so many more important things going on right now. Don’t bend under stupid peoples opinions ..where the hat, keep the band name, watch the 1,000 lb sisters, let them live their lives …you live yours.

  2. So what if Amy listened to a band named Confederate Railroad ?? Big Deal ! So what if someone in the band was wearing a Trump hat ? Freedom of Speech !! I’m 68 years old and none of this bothers me !!!

    1. You go lady… I’m with you. What happened to the fact I live in AMERICA and I’ve got freedom of speech. I also can live my own life.

  3. I dont understand why it matters if they went to a concert or what they choose to wear! Who cares!! Everyone is intitled to their own preferences.

    1. So Amy should police what her relatives’ children wear? Please. At this point people are reaching and looking for sth to be offended over. The same goes for band’s name. She’s done nothing wrong here. Let her enjoy outing and family time. People are so toxic. Call out really problematic stuff people do and showcase online, ticktock is full of it. Amy is also pregnant so these nasty people and articles only bring her unecessary stress.

  4. You idiots need to quit playing follow the leader.stop listening to other idiots. Things happen In life get over yourselves and move on. As far as trump goes, he’s just another man , don’t mean crap,

    1. When are people going to stop living in the past! Learn from the past and look to the future. The world is in a chaotic state as it is, stop adding to it. The band’s name is just that, a name! Why should they change it now. The Civil war was over 157 years ago. You can’t change history, but you can learn from it.

  5. Someday this will be known as the Suppressive 20’s – the decade when no one was allowed to have an individual thought or express any kind of preference.

  6. Well I for 1 support Amy and the band, it’s a name for heaven sakes. Love the Trump hat. Be true to yourself stand for what you believe in. .

    1. Redneck? That’s a racial slur. Not so “loving and tolerant” now, are you? You’re only “loving and tolerant” toward people exactly like you, which is sad

  7. What is wrong with some people now days?! It’s ludicrous that Amy is being bashed for going to a Confederate Railroad concert. What they should be talking about is how happy they are that she’s lost enough weight to attend a concert. Where has our freedoms gone people?

  8. This is so childish who cares what the band name was its a band try to listen to the music freedom of speech and really butt hurt over a Trump Hat wtf has Biden done for us there was no war with trump in office like there is now funny how 3 presidents before Biden kept peace with Russia yet in a year biden offended everyone sells our resourses and war

    1. Amy is entitle to her own opinions, and her nephew too. We not at war with Russia, Russia is at war with Ukraine, why are we blaming Binden for this maniac! I don’t care for Binden, but I definitely don’t care for Trump who’s nothing but a divisive man, people on the right like him because they feel with trump they can say offensives things like the N word ,or go back to your country, or the chinavirus, also what happened on January 6 ,trump evoked this mess.this country is as crazy has his been, everybody wants to blame one man, when every President we had they always been blamed for everything, I just don’t get it we all live in one country but everybody is so divisive everybody should work together and find a middle.

  9. Love all the comments. The moderator really needs to find out what most people (besides their chosen few), think.
    Freedom of speech, even if it doesn’t agree with your politics, is still legal.

  10. Hey people get a grip. We still have freedom of speech. If you don’t like an opinion, no one is forcing you to watch the show or to read the posts. I’m sure there are groups with worst names and as for the trump hat, he has the right to wear what he wants. Are u happy to have to pay $4 or more for a gallon of gas? Worry about the homeless or those who dont have enough to eat.

  11. If a Democrat was a born again Christian that believe in Jesus Christ they wouldn’t be voting for killing babies for races and same-sex marriage

  12. So the f@@@ what. She can support anything that she wants to. How can anyone think that Biden is helping any of us. Leave her alone.

  13. Omg, This is America, she can support anyone she wants. I love Conferate Railroad. Glad they didn’t cave in about there name….change. stupid!

  14. Everyone needs to grow a pair,why can’t we all just be like oh that was nice a family night out, Trump was the best president we’ve had before and after are disasters,

  15. Wow…. People today are too soft to let a hat and band name to upset them? I love both and the idiots like Snoop dog gets to do what they want and it is his right as well.
    Joke Biden….. enough said what is going on in this world. Those who voted for him should slap themselves twice.

  16. Really people!!! I can’t believe all you Biden want to be’s can honestly say something negative about a post and a Trump hat… Stop and take a good look at our country now thanks to the assassin Biden!!! Yes I said assassin !!! He is reson that innocent people lost their lives all due to Covid… You think it just mysteriously just showed up here?!?!?? “Oh wait it’s was bought into our country by foreigners” as many try to say.. Foreigners my ass!!! WAKE UP people!!!

  17. Huh…what a coincidence, I was just listening to Confederate Railroad this evening…and I voted Democrat last election. I’m not sure we can get rid of the term “confederacy” from our lingo. It has Latin origins, so it’s use is not exclusive to the South. I know the band/group means it the southern way, but it IS a part of US history. If people want to label themselves a Confederate or a Nazi or a Soviet…it’s still a free country.

  18. I love the responses to this ridiculous article. Gives me hope. The family enjoyed music from a band who’s name offended those that are so easily offended. Well done to all of them. The family for enjoying life. The band for standing strong and not changing their name from Confederate Railroad because libs are offended by everything. Well done to the young man for being brave enough to wear a hat that frequently can get attacked by libs who can’t handle anything that offends them. Which is everything. FYI- America was in much better shape than it is now with the fake president Biden who is destroying America quickly and has begun to destroy the rest of the world. Putin wouldn’t have attacked Ukraine if libs had not cheated in the election to install an dementia patient as president and a twat as a vp. I suspect the world doesn’t think it’s funny anymore now they see the damage doesn’t just affect USA.

  19. I agree with everyone’s have read. Grow up people and leave Amy alone. Confederate RR is one of my favorite bands. Love their music. And a hat is a hat. None of your business. You didn’t pay for any of it. So sick of people telling me what offends them. People being killed by a crazy dictator offends me but I don’t see any of you complaining about Amy caring about Ukraine, veterans, homeless, senseless killings, abuse. Worry about yourselves and leave Amy alone.

  20. I do not think Amy will stop filming because of money her family makes from it. She has been able to buy a home due to show.

  21. For heaven’s does not matter one lil bit ( pun intended,) whose music they like or what political interests they support. I am a New Englander & sure wish that drain the swamp , &;get things done Prez was still in.office. My wallet would sure appreciate it.

  22. So only liberals and Democrats are allowed free speech? That’s not how this country works. Not political myself and I personally hated Trump and hate Biden too. But this cancel culture crap needs to stop. At this point, someone who loses a job or opportunity because of internet PC police needs to file a lawsuit for infringing on free speech. People need a swift kick in the butt and the reminder that there are more than two political parties in this country and there’s bad people in all of them. Hating others because they don’t share your politics makes you uneducated, unkind, and a cancer to America. Democrats and Republicans need to remember that we are all Americans. We’re on the verge of WWII right now. We need to come together and get along or America is going to go the way of ancient Rome and it will be everyone’s fault.

  23. Who cares what ahe listens to or who somebody supports politically? People in this country are seriously the issue. Its nobodies business but their own. Worry about your own life rather than somebody else’s. Grow up!! Get it Amy. Great band and if that boy wants to support Trump good for him. That’s his choice.

  24. I think its bullcrap an people are to dang judgemental these days.Hell it’s just the name of the Band ,they ain’t racial or nothing and they are actually good band that I have known for awhile an love their music.And the Trump Hat ! Come on people Trump was better than what Biden has done at least Trump did do his job and we wasn’t in all these messes like we are now ,We all have rights to like who we want and not let narcissist people target us to make us change these we like and agree on so for you all that can’t except people for who they are and what they like even though you hate ” grow up and stop the hate and drama ” Like God says ” Before pulling the splinter from your brothers eye ” ,Pull the plank from your own eye.There is only one Judge that is God Almighty. God bless you all.love , huggs, and the sweetest blessings an more.

    1. Love all these awesome comments! Makes me think there’s still hope for America. I hate that some people think that only democraps have a right to voice their opinions. I hope they’re regretting voting this embarrassment into office. Trump 2024!

  25. Its the name of a band lol my goodness the snowflakes are so disturbed… And what is wrong with supporting Trump? it’s funny how the censoring always comes from the “tolerant” left

  26. The sad part about this is you want to yell about people being too judgemental, just look at the babies dying in the Ukraine.Is’nt your guy Trump pals with Puten? Make America Great Again.Yes obviously any comment can go to far but when Amy opened her life to the public she knew what to expect, she’s not naive by any stretch of the imagination.We live in serious times, with everything on the rise(disease,food,gas, housing, health insurance,need I go on)so who I’m standing behind even if it is entertainment matters.A little leeway here,a little there and before you know it that confederate flag may tell what neighborhood you you can fly yours in.If my supporting the show is putting food on her ‘table’ I want to know who I’m feeding.

  27. I can tell by reading these comments that most of these people haven’t gone beyond the 5th grade…..

  28. I wish EVERYONE would leave politics out, I’m sick of the arguing and hate. I’m not going to be a hypocrite and point it out on both posts- just saying, politics ruin everything
